Lucy Kaplansky

Lucy Kaplansky moved from her native Chicago to find her spritual home on New York amongs the community of songwriters and performers that included at the time Suzanne Vega, John Gorka and Bill Morrissey. Her flair for harmony vocals caught the ear of Shawn Colvin, and the two sang duets together.

Kaplansky continued to work on her degree while performing, becoming Dr. Kaplansky and taking a job working with the mentally ill at a New York hospital and starting a private practice.

Lucy's debut album was The Tide in 1994 which was released to rave reviews, and over the years she has become one of the most in-demand vocalists, lennding her talents to recordings to the likes of Nanci Griffith as well as her own releases. Another project combined the talents of Kaplansky, Dar Williams and Richard Shindell under the banner of Cry Cry Cry.
